Insulin Sensitivity. Why it’s the most important aspect of fat loss and muscle building!

So you want to get leaner, more toned, gain muscle and look good without clothes?! Good me too!!! You’ve followed every diet out there, you’ve tried every guru’s training program, took every supplement on the market and even tried going to the gym 7 days a week in hopes maybe, just maybe that’s the secret!! Well I’m here to tell you ITS NOT!!!!! The secret lies inside your bodies internal system, Insulin, that’s the secret!!!

So every time you eat your blood sugar rises, insulin is secreted by the pancreas to subsequently bring blood sugar back down to normal levels. The sugar, fats, and proteins in your blood are moved either to muscle cells or stored as fat. Now over time, just like any substance, your body becomes desensitized to insulins effects, aka insulin no longer works as effectively to lower blood sugar and transports nutrients available to fat cells since it’s easier for your body!! See your body wants to do the least amount of work possible!!!

No matter how much you diet after this point, no matter how much you work out, body composition will not change do to the fact insulin isn’t working!! So the key here is resensitizing your body to insulins effects, much the same way you would go off caffeine for a bit because it stops working, we have to reset our body in this sense too! If you don’t you will continue to spin your wheels, which many people do, until they quit then try the same shit again and again, quitting over and over!!! It’s time to get uncomfortable to allow our body to start seeing REAL progress.

Let’s take a different approach, that’s guaranteed to work!!! I will create a different post later on to describe what this process would look like in terms of traditional eating to get your body pushing forward and one that is sustainable for the long haul!!

INTENSITY OVER EVERYTHING
